Male-on-female violence is everywhere!

Today's media is fully responsible for creating this violent, strong male image that most men feel they should follow. This creates violence towards the weak who are other men who don't hold this image and, more importantly, women. I personally have not been a victim of male-on-female violence physically or verbally, yet, however I know a very close member of my family who has. I will not say her name or how she is related to me; but I will call her Sue for her safety and privacy.
Before I went to college, Sue sat me down to explain the dangers of date-rape and violence. I assured her that I would be fine and will always have my fiance (at the time) and my male friends to protect me at bars or parties. She looked at me with tears in her eyes and warned me that my friends are the ones who I should be most concerned with.
Sue and her best friend Bob have been close friends since high school and both attended Ole Miss together. Bob took Sue to a huge party at his fraternity and everything went perfectly. Bob sheltered her from the other drunk frat boys who hit on her and tried to give her drinks. Sue only took drinks from Bob knowing that they would be safe to consume.
Sue woke up the next morning in the back of her car, naked and bleeding. She had bruises on her arms and legs and her vagina hurt excruciatingly. She realized that she had been date-raped. She ran to the police and called Bob to come to her rescue and to be questioned by the police if he knew who took Sue out of his sight. However, Bob was nowhere to be found and was unreachable. He had cut of his phone and ran to Alabama where they later found him. He eventually confessed that he had date-raped his own best friend and was convicted.
The story horrified me. I never realized that most women who are victims of date-rape are done so by their closest male friends! It's a proven fact! Now I am extremely careful with who I am with and always make sure that I have a sober female to watch over me when I go out, and I sometimes stay sober to watch my girlfriends and offer them rides home before another guy does. It's extremely prevalent and dangerous and I take the precautions needed to make sure that it hopefully never happens to me.
